Gee...all I have to do is follow "step-by-step" instructions and
it doesn't matter if I have "never painted before" and I can create
all those Faux Finishes (marble, woods, granites, brick, etc)
and the Decorative Paint Effects found in populat restaurants.
Faux Finish is a very old art...a craft perhaps also...and one I learned
in about two years of study in a theatre school...the same effects are
mastered...It was hands on learning from a man who studied in Germany
these skills and crafts and arts for 7 years...He is still learning as I
am also..
I doubt very much that the quality you propose to teach with
the "step-by-step" approach is actually going to work...
There is no short cut here....
If you want to learn the skills, the crafts, the art of FAUX FINISH
it cannot be done in a week...like Rome it takes longer..
